History

"Fountain of Youth" began as a concept and script by Jocke Andersson circa 1999. Since then the project has grown in scale and ambition. In 2006, after many years pulling assets and ideas together, a playable demo was released. Since then, two further Christmas themed mini-games have been released, as well as several Flash animations. Production continues...

In 2013 the team took the decision to split the game up and release it as Chapters. Development progresses but we are also recruiting for more talent to join us and ease the workload.

The team is made up of keen game makers and creatives, including: Mark Lovegrove (CEO of Screen 7), Misja van Laatum (Artist), Jan Simon (Game developer), Paul Wilkinson (CEO of Subspark), Mutbrecht Asengard (Pixel artist). We are very grateful to everyone who has helped, donated and supported FoY over the years, we realize it has been a long while! If you feel you can help us with character art, animation or story get in touch. You can reach the team about recuirtment or general questions via goaskindiana@hotmail.co.uk

Latest Tech Release: We have been tinkering with fight sequences during the game. Although fights can typically be avoided and there will also be a mouse control option (see the 2006 demo), this little tech demo allows you to play against your friend using keyboard or Xbox controllers! Programmed by Jan "DKH" Simon.
